Burnt Sage is a rhapsody of money and passion-filled romance, of betrayal and double-dealing, of adventure and intrigue and restless disembodied souls lurking in a murky limbo between life and death. Enter Dawn Sage-one of the principal characters-a been-there-done-that survivor of domestic violence whose life, cluttered with the drama of a temper-tossed relationship colored by frustration and heartache, flees Chicago, having withstood her ex-boyfriend's buzz-saw of angst and many of his bridge-burning eruptions.

But, is he the ultimate player-a Mack-Daddy extraordinaire, a raspy-smooth operator who knows the right tune to strum on her heartstrings? Throughout the story, these questions run around in her head like a sprinter doing practice laps on a track. She is a woman that has been wounded by love before and choked by the debris of physical and emotional abuse. Like they say, A Burnt Child Dreads Fire. Is her Mr. Look So Good, the fire she is playing around with, again?
